| DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS |
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS AtlasClear Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Calculator New Pubco, Inc.) (the “Company” or “AtlasClear Holdings”) is a Delaware corporation and prior to the Business Combination (defined below), was a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Quantum FinTech Acquisition Corporation (“Quantum”). Quantum was incorporated in Delaware on October 1, 2020. Quantum was a blank check company formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. On February 9, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the Company consummated the previously announced transactions pursuant to that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated November 16, 2022 (as amended, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among the Company, Quantum, Calculator Merger Sub 1, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the registrant (“Merger Sub 1”), Calculator Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the registrant (“Merger Sub 2”), AtlasClear, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“AtlasClear”), Atlas FinTech Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Atlas FinTech”) and Robert McBey. The transactions consummated as a result of the Business Combination Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Business Combination.” In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), the Company changed its name from “Calculator New Pubco, Inc.” to “AtlasClear Holdings, Inc.” As a result, the operation history of Quantum survived the merger. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, AtlasClear received certain assets from Atlas FinTech and Atlas Financial Technologies Corp., a Delaware corporation, and the Broker-Dealer Acquisition Agreement (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), AtlasClear completed the acquisition of broker-dealer, Wilson-Davis & Co., Inc. (“Wilson-Davis”). On February 16, 2024, AtlasClear and Pacsquare Technologies, LLC (“Pacsquare”) entered into a Source Code Purchase and Master Services Agreement (the “Pacsquare Purchase Agreement”). On June 10, 2025, AtlasClear entered into an amended Software Development and License Agreement with Pacsquare, pursuant to which AtlasClear purchased a proprietary data management platform that was developed by Pacsquare, including certain software and source code (the “AtlasClear Platform”). AtlasClear Holdings’ goal is to build a cutting-edge technology enabled financial services firm that would create a more efficient platform for trading, clearing, settlement and banking, with evolving and innovative financial products such as crypto that focus on financial services firms. AtlasClear Holdings is a fintech driven business-to-business platform that expects to power innovation in fintech, investing, and trading. AtlasClear does not meet the definition of a business and therefore was treated as an asset acquisition by AtlasClear Holdings. As such the assets contributed from Atlas FinTech and the net assets of AtlasClear were recognized at historical cost. ASC 350 prohibits the recognition of goodwill in an asset purchase with related parties. Quantum was deemed the accounting acquirer based on the following factors: i) Quantum issued cash and shares of its common stock; ii) Quantum controlled the voting rights under the no redemption and the maximum contractual redemption scenarios; iii) Quantum had the largest minority voting interest; iv) Quantum has control over the board of directors of the post-combination company and most of senior management of the post-combination company are former officers of Quantum. Wilson-Davis is a securities broker and dealer, dealing in over-the-counter and listed securities. Wilson-Davis is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Revenue is derived principally from Wilson-Davis’ operations in three areas: commission revenue, fee revenue and interest revenue. Wilson-Davis has operations in Utah, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, New York, Oklahoma and Texas. Transactions for customers are principally in the states where the Company operates, however, some customers are located in other states in which the Company is registered. Principal trading activities are conducted with other broker dealers throughout the United States. Reverse Stock Split and Authorized Share Increase On December 31, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-60 reverse stock split of its common stock. As a result of the reverse stock split, every 60 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were automatically combined into one share of common stock, with any fractional shares rounded up to the nearest whole share. The reverse stock split did not change the par value of the common stock however the Company increased the number of authorized shares to 525,000,000 shares, consisting of 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), and 25,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”). The reverse stock split has been applied retroactively in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for all periods presented. All share and per-share amounts, including earnings per share (“EPS”), have been adjusted accordingly to reflect the reverse stock split as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The impact of the reverse stock split is summarized as follows: | ● | The total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock decreased from 12,455,157 to 207,585 as of June 30, 2024. |
| ● | Earnings per share and other per-share data were adjusted proportionally to reflect the reverse stock split. |
| ● | The reverse stock split had no impact on the Company’s total stockholders’ equity, net income, or overall financial condition. |
Management believes that the reverse stock split was necessary to regain compliance with stock exchange listing requirements and improve marketability of the stock. Going Concern As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $29,609,219 in its bank accounts and a working capital deficit of $6,069,462. The Company has raised and intends to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to loan the Company funds, from time to time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,” the liquidity of the Company raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through the twelve months following the issuance of the financial statements. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities as a result of this uncertainty. Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. As such the Company has accrued for the estimated excise tax as a result of the redemptions that occurred after December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the excise tax payable is $2,611,618 and $2,067,572, respectively. The June 30, 2025 balance includes $544,046 in penalties due to late filing and non payment of taxes as of June 30, 2025. As of the date of filing the Company has not paid the excise tax and as such the Company may be subject to interest and penalties which have been estimated and accrued. Transition Period Comparative Data On August 9, 2024, the board of directors of AtlasClear Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) determined to change the Company’s fiscal year end from December 31 to June 30. Below is a summary of financial statements for the six-month transition period from January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024 compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2023. 1.Consolidated Balance Sheets | | | | | | | | | June 30, | | June 30, | | | 2024 | | 2023 | ASSETS | | | | (Unaudited) | Current assets | | | | | | | Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 6,558,176 | | $ | 1,132,900 | Cash segregated - customers | | | 20,548,972 | | | — | Cash segregated - PAB | | | 200,738 | | | — | Receivables - broker-dealers and clearing organizations | | | 1,333,306 | | | — | Receivables - customers, net | | | 823,784 | | | — | Other receivables | | | 64,842 | | | — | Prepaid expenses | | | 67,967 | | | 29,458 | Trading securities, market value, net | | | 55 | | | — | Due from Atlas Clear | | | — | | | 49,806 | Total Current Assets | | | 29,597,840 | | | 1,212,164 | | | | | | | | Operating lease right to use lease asset | | | 326,336 | | | — | Property and equipment, net | | | 16,080 | | | — | Customer list, net | | | 14,150,856 | | | — | Goodwill | | | 7,706,725 | | | — | Pacsquare asset purchase | | | 1,726,500 | | | — | Bank acquisition deposit | | | 91,200 | | | — | Cash deposits - broker-dealers and clearing organizations | | | 3,515,000 | | | — | Other assets | | | 336,017 | | | — | Marketable securities held in Trust Account | | | — | | | 57,409,747 | TOTAL ASSETS | | $ | 57,466,554 | | $ | 58,621,911 | | | | | | | | LIABILITIES, REDEEMABLE COMMON STOCK AND STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT | | | | | | | Current liabilities | | | | | | | Payables to customers | | $ | 20,162,973 | | $ | — | Accounts and payables to officers/directors | | | 686,579 | | | — | Accounts payable and accrued expenses | | | 5,393,912 | | | 5,181,488 | Payables - broker-dealers and clearing organizations | | | 4,915 | | | — | Commissions, payroll and payroll taxes | | | 273,386 | | | — | Current portion of lease liability | | | 149,499 | | | — | Stock payable | | | 259,893 | | | — | Convertible notes, net | | | 3,783,437 | | | — | Secured convertible note, net | | | 6,857,101 | | | — | Promissory notes | | | 852,968 | | | — | Short-term merger financing, net | | | 5,092,083 | | | — | Contingent gurantee | | | 3,256,863 | | | — | Subscription agreement | | | 2,425,647 | | | — | Excise tax payable | | | 2,067,572 | | | — | Excise taxes payable | | | — | | | 1,485,236 | Stock payable - related party | | | 55,087 | | | — | Advance from related parties | | | — | | | 1,968,116 | Promissory note – related party | | | — | | | 480,000 | Total Current Liabilities | | | 51,321,915 | | | 9,114,840 | | | | | | | | Accrued contingent liability | | | 100,000 | | | — | Long-term merger financing, net | | | 7,606,561 | | | — | Derivative liability - convertible notes | | | 16,462,690 | | | — | Derivative liability - warrants | | | 307,656 | | | 307,656 | Earnout - liability | | | 12,298,000 | | | — | Deferred income tax liability | | | 5,245,886 | | | — | Subordinated borrowings | | | 1,950,000 | | | — | Trading account deposit | | | 100,000 | | | — | Long-term lease liability | | | 182,729 | | | — | Total Liabilities | | | 95,575,437 | | | 9,422,496 | | | | | | | | Commitments and Contingencies | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Common stock subject to possible redemption | | | — | | | 57,113,761 | | | | | | | | Stockholders’ Deficit | | | | | | | Preferred stock, $0.0001 par value; | | | — | | | — | Common stock, $0.0001 par value; | | | 1,246 | | | 503 | Additional paid-in capital | | | 110,164,676 | | | — | Accumulated deficit | | | (148,274,805) | | | (7,914,849) | Total Stockholders’ Deficit | | | (38,108,883) | | | (7,914,346) | TOTAL LIABILITIES, REDEEMABLE COMMON STOCK AND STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT | | $ | 57,466,554 | | $ | 58,621,911 |
